According to figures published by the U.S. Department of Health Education and Welfare, "60.5 percent of all college entrants do not graduate." That means that fewer than 6 of every 10 students entering college find their hopes of graduating dashed to the ground. WHY DOES THIS HAVE TO HAPPEN? The shift from high school to college is one of the most drastic experience transitions in the life of a young man or woman. In June, he was an adolescent, and was treated as such. In September he is suddenly expected to function as an adult. The student's test-taking ability, his ability to cope with mountains of new material, are challenged constantly, and from the very beginning of his college career. The student's ability to grasp new concepts is also given a workout. In college, there is no slowing down the class to explain something to a slow student. College is much more competitive than high school. Almost half of all high school graduates never even enter college, and those who do are usually the ones who had better grade ( averages in high school. PREPARE YOURSELF IN ADVANCE! The best way to beat the percentage is to prepare yourself in advance. The Evelyn Wood Reading Dynamics Course is designed to help you do just that. N GRADUATE STUDENTS Doug German, N. U.
